Zhou Yunwan slowly shook the cup with more than half of the juice left in it, and looked expressionlessly at Xie Wenjian who had come up to her.
Sun Manting went to the toilet. She was alone for a while when Xie Wenzhang came over. Fortunately, he didn't sit down stupidly, otherwise she would really get angry and curse at him.
Xie Wenjian talked to himself for a long time. Seeing that she ignored him, he felt a little embarrassed. He accidentally looked out the window not far away and whispered, "It seems to be snowing outside."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yunwan, who was feeling bored after staying indoors for too long, brightened up her eyes and couldn't help but get up and want to walk around on the terrace outside to get some fresh air.
That location is not far from here. When Sun Manting comes back later, she will be able to see it and won’t have to worry about not being able to find anyone.
But just as she took a few steps, Xie Wenjian followed her like a fly that could not be shaken off. She instinctively frowned in disgust and said, "Don't follow me."
I don’t know if it was because the music in the hall was too loud, or if Xie Wenjian was too thick-skinned to understand what people were saying, but he ignored her scolding and continued to follow her.
Zhou Yunwan was so angry that she could no longer bear it. Just as she was about to start cursing, she saw a dark shadow suddenly blocking them. The man was tall and stood in front of her like a mountain, completely covering her and making her feel safe.
But when he opened his mouth, his cold tone was more frightening than ice: "Get lost!"
...
...
Xie Wenzhang was startled and met the other person's gloomy eyes. He involuntarily took a half step back: "Sorry."
After saying this apology, Xie Wenjian didn't dare to stay for a moment and ran away in shame.
The lines on Shen Yanli's face were tense, and his chest was heaving, as if he was trying his best to suppress his anger. After a long while, he pulled the corner of his mouth lightly, and his voice softened: "Are you okay?"
Zhou Yunwan looked up at Shen Yanli. He seemed to have returned to normal, but there was a coldness brewing in his eyes, which was obscure and frightening.
She rarely saw him so emotionally exposed. The last time was because of that wretched man on the bus, and the time before that was because her awful uncle and aunt bullied her too much...
In short, the few times it happened were all related to her.
Thinking of this, Zhou Yunwan pursed her lips and said, "Of course I'm fine."
Chen Yanli lowered his eyes and looked at her stunned little face. He suppressed his temper, but his voice was still a little cold: "Do you still want to stay? Let's go home."
"Not yet."
Shen Yanli didn't expect that she would refuse, his eyes darkened, unconsciously stained with a hint of anger, because he had drunk, his tone became a little aggressive: "What's fun here? Why do you have to..."
Seeing that he misunderstood, Zhou Yunwan frowned and interrupted him: "My friend went to the bathroom, I have to wait for my friend to come back."
“…” The rest of Shen Yanli’s words were stuck in his throat, neither up nor down, and he frowned in discomfort.
After a strange silence, Sun Manting, who had gone to the bathroom, came back. Noticing that the atmosphere between the two was not right, she gave Zhou Yunwan a questioning look.
Zhou Yunwan curled her lips slightly, then explained to Sun Manting what had just happened, and then said: "Manting, we will go back first, you wait a moment..."
Sun Manting followed her and cursed Xie Wenzhang a few times. Fearing that she would worry, she calmly covered the wine stains on her sleeves with her hands and said softly, "It's okay, you can go back. I'll take the art troupe's bus back later."
After saying goodbye, Shen Yanli went back to get the bag he had left behind, and then left the banquet hall with Zhou Yunwan.
After walking out of the complex building, before Shen Yanli had time to react, Zhou Yunwan pulled her hand and walked quickly to the side of the building.
She didn't let go of his hand until they were behind a bush blocked by a black car.
The snow was falling heavily like goose feathers, and darkness enveloped this extremely secret corner.
It was quiet all around, with no one around except them, and they could only vaguely hear music coming from the ballroom above their heads.
Zhou Yunwan panted slightly, and wisps of light cold fragrance mixed with the smell of alcohol entered her nose, stimulating all her senses. She raised her eyebrows and chuckled: "You don't let me drink, but you drank a lot yourself."
Shen Yanli leaned his back against the cold wall, in front of him was a person who was not even as tall as his shoulders. Her two hands passed through his chest and pressed against the wall, "forcefully" trapping his entire body in the small space between her arms.
This was a bit like the situation on the bus that day, except this time, the two of them switched positions.
The two were very close to each other, but because the light was not bright enough, he couldn't see her expression clearly, making it difficult for him to judge her emotions at the moment.
But judging from the voice, he seemed angry.
His Adam's apple rolled, his head was dizzy from drinking a little, and he subconsciously explained: "I don't get drunk easily, and I don't drink much."
Zhou Yunwan snorted: "The smell of alcohol is so strong that it hits my nose, and you still say it's not much?"
Shen Yanli choked, he actually didn’t remember how much he drank, but his consciousness was still clear.
The location she chose was really tricky, avoiding the entrances and exits and without street lights. Basically no one passed by here, but what if? If someone discovered them, there might be unnecessary misunderstandings.
After a moment of silence, he lowered his voice and asked, "Wanwan, what are you doing here?"
Zhou Yunwan opened her mouth and was about to speak when snowflakes floated on her eyelashes, causing her to feel itchy.
She blinked rapidly, trying to get rid of the snowflakes that were in the way, but failed after several attempts. The snowflakes melted due to her body temperature and blurred her vision.
She was so angry that she had to withdraw her hand that was against the wall and rub her eyes with the back of her hand.
Before she was done, Shen Yanli’s suppressed low laughter came from above.
Zhou Yunwan bit her lower lip lightly, her face red as blood dripping out, "What are you laughing at?"
The atmosphere was ruined by his laughter.
Shen Yanli suppressed his smile and said softly, "Hmm? What's wrong?"
Zhou Yunwan rolled her eyes and leaned close to his ear and said, "I heard that after the dance, some young couples would hide away to make out, so I wanted to try my luck."
“…” Shen Yanli never thought that this was the reason.
Not to mention how absurd and immoral this idea is, given their current posture and position, it is already very good not to be "tried by luck" by others.
After a long time, he sighed: "Wanwan."
These two simple words perfectly summed up his speechlessness and helplessness.
"Huh? What did you say?" Zhou Yunwan seemed not to hear his words clearly, and her soft body unconsciously moved closer to his arms.
Especially those two soft lumps, which pressed directly against his chest, flattening it by two points visibly to the naked eye.
The veins on Chen Yanli's forehead throbbed, and his breathing became disordered in an instant, and he could hardly control himself.
He frowned in disbelief: "Wanwan?"
Zhou Yunwan pretended not to know and asked innocently, "What's wrong?"
Shen Yanli took a deep breath, “You drank again?”
Apart from this reason, he couldn't think of any other reason that would make her behave so abnormally.
"I don't have any. If you don't believe me, smell me and see if I smell like alcohol."
As she spoke, Zhou Yunwan pulled his collar hard, stood on tiptoes, and moved her lips towards him.
